Obamacare cuts home healthcare for millions of seniors

WEBER: Obamacare cuts home healthcare for millions of seniors – Washington Times.

On Jan. 1, Medicare’s home health care services, formerly serving 3.5 million elderly beneficiaries across the country, were cut under Obamacare. The cut deleted exactly 14 percent, or an estimated $22 billion, from these lowest-income Americans over four years. News of the forthcoming cut only trickled out the Friday before Thanksgiving, yet another stunning attempt by the Obama White House to reduce Medicare benefits without attracting notice.

I’m somewhat skeptical that this information wasn’t available earlier and the MSM, being Obama’s lapdogs, elected not to report it.

I bet these folks are going to find a way to vote.

From a big picture perspecitve, this also shows how hard it is to reduce the benefits of government programs.
